What a bummer about the yucky Chef Mickey's meal - we enjoyed ours, but with a buffet it can really depend on when you get there!
I'm totally with you about flying - I would rather drive (not out of dislike of flying, but to save money) but my hubby hates it. And I share the wheel with him, but he still says its just too far. I'm trying to convince him to drive next year and use the money saved on an upgrade.
Yes, we are definitely going in 2010. But... not in May this time. Really, it wasn't the rain that scared me off , because I know thats really unusual (in fact I hear that was the wettest week they've EVER had that wasn't caused by a tropical storm). But our usual week to go is in September - this very week in fact!

I am so bummed that we are not in Disney right now - it just doesn't seem right! We are a year-round school district, and we always go the first week of our fall break, which is now. It gives me something to look forward to that whole first quarter of school. So, after changing things up this year and regretting it, we will be going back to our usual September trip. Otherwise, it would have been really fun to get in on your meet!
Looking forward to following your PTR for next year's trip!
